Adroit vs Calvin

Ignored all the **** posted by prof, anywayz..

@Adroit - Curious about the setup of your genie. From what I see you got 60 pts on vit, how did you distribute the rest? So far I have fortify and it works like a charm, wondering whether to get rid of Expel to get Badge of courage since its not possible to have both those skills with fortify, bt not sure about it. We psys die much faster than our mag counterparts and expel is one skill which saves me from sins coming out of stealth with occult ice.

So ya, just curious as to how much mag and dex you got on your genie to make badge worthwhile having.

haha funny you asked XD

I really don't know a ton about psychics, I can tell you one reason badge works so well for me is because I can blink immediately after to get out of trouble. I'm sure you could psy will or something of the like to get you out of a stun.. but realize that wizards and psychics may or may not benefit from the same skills :P (using badge and then sitting there not knowing what to do would kinda be a bummer.. but if you had a plan.. perhaps apoth pot or white voodoo or w/e the hell psychics do it might be a good idea XD)

First off excellent link, very detailed explanation of why Fortify can be an incredible skill if timed right. I can't tell you the times that Fortify has saved me, since most Bms are so predictable with their occult ice/ roar opening. Preemptively using fortify for sins' tele stun also works wonders since soul of retaliation doesn't reflect debuffs with no damage.

So from your genie set up looks like Badge has a success chance of 77% which isn't too bad. My genie should hopefully get 81 lp and I'll most prob cap vit at 50 and add the extra to dex. Anwayz, thnx for the info.

yup, I actually need to update my first post.. I've since gotten 4dex genie gear so I have a 6sec fortify + 85% chance to remove stun at this point :P I was seriously considering trying for 100dex.. but that would mean I'd have to take out 15 vit for the extra 10dex.. and I just can't bring myself to do it. If it was an even 10 for 10 trade.. or if I could afford 4dex/4vit gear I might have done it If I could do it all over I might have gone with an longevity genie with 100dex.. wind shield instead of wind force and really work for the 4dex/4vit gear. I'm still overall very happy with my genie.. just got those what ifs going through my head if I had done a couple things just slightly differently (honestly I'd probably still go for my current genie over that "what if" longevity genie.. wind force is just so nice to have in those odd cases when you really need it xD)

Psys don't need wind force, we got Sutra b:laugh It does have its downside of not being instant cast and having 90 sec cd b:surrender

haha ya, if you were going with a dex genie you'd probably be better off with an longevity xD

I have a new genie since I posted last...

90/100 Longevity.

3 str

1 Foritfy
10 Holy Path
10 Frenzy
10 Extreme Poison

10 Spark.

Currently has 2 +Mag gear giving me 53 magic but I will remove those for +4 dex gear so I can have 6 sec fortify 90% badge 16 second EP and SEVEN! second holypath hehee

rofl imo you should post it in the genie discussion thread XD May as well merge the two threads I guess.. they are talking about mostly the same stuff ahha

edit: and 3str? This is not your discipline! XD
